    Funny in-game quotes

    Sit#1 DM: There's nothing in the room but a green, mouldy bag. PC1: Dan, pull up your pants. PC2: I grab it! Group breaks into insane cackling. Sit#2 (same PC, the group was fighting an ogre) PC1: I make a called shot with my lasso. DM: Where are you aiming for? PC1: His genitals PC1 rolls and...

    What about magical weed for those magical pipes? Heck, I'd be happy with some magical fungus!

    I saw THE CORE! [not completely OT]

    In case anyone is interested, Sci Fi Dimensions has a relatively positive review at: http://www.scifidimensions.com/Mar03/thecore.htm I've been looking forward to this movie just based on the premise. I know little enough about science to be bothered by it. I hate turning off my critical...

    This was my first assignment for Darkquest and I'll be really interested to see how it comes out. Thanks to Tensen for the opportunity. Hope everyone enjoys it.

    New Artwork added to my site..

    Great stuff. Very comic-booky, but in a good way, like the good art in comic books. I checked out your site and liked it. Great work. Thanks for sharing.

    [OT] UK Guardian Observer's Embarassing Exclusive...

    Apparently, the Observer transcribed it into UK spelling while the original was in US. It's been changed. Odd. Edit for spelling and accuracy.

    Posting to threads you haven't read

    See, now this I'm not even going to skim! The only Latin I remember is 'ea magna pulcher est' and that's probably wrong.

    Good enough. I will try to be more careful in the future. Can we put this to bed?

    Posting to threads you haven't read

    Zander, I do apologize because it was never my intention to annoy, bother or otherwise cause any mental anguish of any sort or severity through my post. Yes, I am egocentric. Do I believe my time is more valuable than anyone else's? To me, yes it is. To everyone else, no it isn't. It is not my...

    So they went and butchered the 3.5 ranger...

    Frankly, I was trying to add a tad of levity (ergo the smilies). I didn't realize footnoting was necessary. It is true, I didn't read each and every post (all three pages of them) before I dropped in my--perhaps misplaced and unwitty--witticism. And, in all honesty, I don't have the time. In...

    Star Trek: Who's hotter

    See, I've got to go with 7, simply because I had a friend who actually looked like her (but with some actual meat on her bones) and it made me look at her in a whole new way. Not that anything happened:D Still, everytime I see 7, I think of the unnamed friend. Hmmm, wonder if she reads these...

    So they went and butchered the 3.5 ranger...

    The one explanation for TWF for Rangers that no one has latched on to is the Saracen character "Nasir" in the BBC "Robin of Sherwood" TV series. He fought with (IIRC) a longsword and scimitar, and as a 'merry man' he was kind of a Ranger. Okay, the explanation sucks. :D Still the Nasir...

    Grim-N-Gritty Hit Point and Combat Rules

    I've never played Call of Cthulhu, but I think the Grim-N-Gritty rules certainly belong in any modern game. It just seems more realistic. I mean, to my mind--and this is just an opinion--the kind of heroic battles that the d20 abstract combat system simulates doesn't really fit in any kind of...

    Grim-N-Gritty Hit Point and Combat Rules

    Thanks for the info. I had looked for a thread on the subject before I posted the notice re: Grim-N-Gritty, but it seems I didn't look hard enough. Lots of stuff to chew on. Thanks again. Take care!

    Grim-N-Gritty Hit Point and Combat Rules

    Good ideas. It's interesting as I had heard of VPs before, but hadn't actually seen the rules until this weekend. I can't say I'm a fan, as they are simply another layer of the abstract hit point rules I was fleeing from. I think they could have a place, perhaps as you have indicated their use...

    Grim-N-Gritty Hit Point and Combat Rules

    In the latest issue of Sword's Edge E-Zine I've written an article on the Grim-N-Gritty Hit Point and Combat Rules from Sleeping Imperium. I personally found the rules useful. Has anyone else tried these rules out? Any variants on this variant? Take care all!
